MEANS AND METHOD FOR WASTE COLLECTION

摘要

The invention relates to a system (100) for waste control in association with automated waste collection. An RFID signal from an RFID tag (12) attached to a waste item to be inserted into the waste collection system is read with an RFID reader (22) arranged in proximity of an inlet to the waste collection system. Identification information related to the waste item is extracted from the RFID signal, whereafter some control actions are performed in relation to the waste item based on the extracted identification information. The control actions can for example serve to prevent non-allowed waste items from entering the system by means of an alarm signal or by an obstructing means as well as to automatically sort waste.
